Day One Hundred and Ninety Four

Miss Pancake 

Zita and I only had a very little sleep in this morning.

But it was such a beautiful day today that right after our breakfast Zita and I drove to my farm. 

So I could have a very wonderful run around. 

And now there is no snow there either. 

But I found some of their very big and dangerous machines. 

My goodness me.

And when we got home I was very busy. 

Because Niamh was in the den writing more of her of university story. Right there on the comfy sofa. 

So I minded her until we drove her to her Saturday work.

When we got home Craig was talking to his breakfast friends on his computer. 

So I went to the breakfast too. I got up on the sofa so I could listen to everybody. But I fell asleep. Oh well.

When I was asleep Zita went to the grocery store so we had lots of new food for us. 

Then Zita talked to everyone in Ireland. Even her mother and father and Auntie Eileen. 

So I got up on my watching chair to mind her. 

After lunchtime I was very busy too. We were cleaning the little refrigerator in our office. 

Because there was a bit of too much ice inside. 

So we took everything out and put it all keep it cold box. 

And I minded it until it was as empty as could be. 

But it still made noises

So someone had to mind it. And that was a good job for me.

But then I had to mind Craig and the refrigerator at the same time. So I just went into the den’s doorway and had a rest.

Then I helped Zita read Niamh’s new essay. It was long. 

Our friends the badgers did not get up until a long time after lunch. 

Because they had very sick tummies and bad headaches. Oh dear. All of them.

Zita said it served them right galavanting around at their age. 

Even if it was a special celebration. 

They admitted to Zita that they had four bottles of Krug 08, between the three of them. 

And danced into the wee hours. With bagpipes. 

Apparently the bottles were sent by the Blackthorn-Badger Trust. In appreciation. 

And there are even more in the basement. Oh my. 

Zita said that she did not wish to know not one whit more. 

So they went back to bed after Zita gave them some headache medicine. 

And hot water bottles for their tummies.

Dugal told me that they would be all better tomorrow. Maybe. 

Then our friend Mister Tom visited and brought us brand new detective programs. 

He always brings us very interesting programs. That is nice of him. 

And then it was time to get in the car and get Niamh. 

So she could have some dinner and not starve. So we had her very favourite hot dogs. 

Then it was time for me to mind Niamh in the den. While she fixed her essay all up.

So I just sat and her shoulders. 

So I could help her eat her dinner.

Then Craig and Zita and I watched our detective program. 

Until everybody so too tired and we went to bed.
